Durham's Weekend Treasure Hunt Starts Here

Hundreds of vendors, incredible food, and real deals every Saturday and Sunday at 1600 E Pettigrew St.

About Us

A market stall with various goods and signage.

Saturday morning in Durham has a ritual: show up early, grab something hot from one of the food vendors, and start wandering the stalls at The Durham Green Flea Market. Spread across a lively open-air lot on East Pettigrew Street, this is the kind of place where you might leave with a vintage lamp, a bag of fresh produce, a plushie for your kid, and a full stomach, all before noon.

With over 940 reviews and a loyal weekend following, the market draws a genuinely diverse crowd of bargain hunters, collectors, families, and first-timers. Vendors set up their tables, the smell of food drifts across the lot, and by 11:00 AM the whole place hums. It is casual, unpretentious, and exactly what a flea market should be.

If you are looking for curated boutique shopping with valet parking, this is not your spot. But if you want real finds, real food, and real people doing real business in Durham, NC, pull up on a Saturday or Sunday between 7 AM and 4 PM and see what you discover.

What We Offer

The market runs two days a week, Saturday and Sunday from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and the vendor mix changes enough week to week that repeat visitors always find something new. Expect a wide range of goods: clothing, electronics, tools, toys, collectibles, jewelry, household items, and plenty of things that defy easy categorization.

Food and snacks are a genuine highlight here, not an afterthought. Multiple food vendors serve hot meals and quick bites throughout the day, and reviewers consistently call it out as one of the best parts of the visit. Whether you are browsing for an hour or spending the whole morning, you will not go hungry.

Vendor spaces are available with tables provided, making it straightforward to set up and start selling. The crowd builds steadily and peaks around midday, so first-time sellers should arrive early, get organized, and be patient. The customer base is real, the atmosphere is friendly, and the Durham Green Flea Market community is welcoming to new vendors and shoppers alike.

"Picked up some cool items, variety of vendors. Food was excellent. It's a flea market, so if you're bougie this is not your place. Had a great time and will come back next time I visit. Transactions are easier if you speak Spanish, but you'll get along adequately if you don't."

"Very calm environment to be during the week ends. I like the food and snacks a lot. There’s also cute stuff like plushies. Parking is more expensive lately, and it is a bit crowded but the food and mini shops make up for it."
